To strengthen communication between the Force and local schools, a football friendly match was held between officers from Tai Po District (TPDIST) and a team of incumbent and retired principals from the New Territories School Heads Association on June 28.

Before the match kicked off, representatives of both teams exchanged flags to promote the spirit of "Friendship first, Competition second". New Territories North (NTN) Regional Commander Kwok Ho-fai and Senior Superintendent of Crime NTN Headquarters Chan Tsan-wing were invited to play this exciting match with the principals.

TPDIST Commander Patrick Laidler and the principals enjoyed the game and looked forward to another friendly match.
